Assuming that the initial pH is pHi.
The initial concentration of [OH-] is
[OH]- = 10^(14 - pHi)
Since half of the Na2HPO4 is neutralized, the concentration of [OH-] will be reduced to half. The new pH will be
[OH-]/2 = 10^(14 - pHi)/2 = 10^(14 - pH)
14 - pHi - log 2 = 14 - pH
In terms of pHi,
pH = pHi + log 2
Explanation:
It is given that,
The electron in a hydrogen atom, originally in level n = 8, undergoes a transition to a lower level by emitting a photon of wavelength 3745 nm. It means that,


The amount of energy change during the transition is given by :
![\Delta E=R_H[\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_i^2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20E%3DR_H%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_i%5E2%7D%5D)
And
![\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=R_H[\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_i^2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bhc%7D%7B%5Clambda%7D%3DR_H%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_i%5E2%7D%5D)
Plugging all the values we get :
![\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{3745\times 10^{-9}}=2.179\times 10^{-18}[\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{8^2}]\\\\\dfrac{5.31\times 10^{-20}}{2.179\times 10^{-18}}=[\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{8^2}]\\\\0.0243=[\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{64}]\\\\0.0243+\dfrac{1}{64}=\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}\\\\0.039925=\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}\\\\n_f^2=25\\\\n_f=5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B6.63%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-34%7D%5Ctimes%203%5Ctimes%2010%5E8%7D%7B3745%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D%7D%3D2.179%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-18%7D%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%5E2%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7B5.31%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-20%7D%7D%7B2.179%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-18%7D%7D%3D%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%5E2%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C0.0243%3D%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B64%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C0.0243%2B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B64%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C0.039925%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bn_f%5E2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cn_f%5E2%3D25%5C%5C%5C%5Cn_f%3D5)
So, the final level of the electron is 5.
The sun provides energy through nuclear fusion by fusing the atoms of hydrogen and helium in the suns core, so the answer is D
A covalent bond is a bond between 2 non metals, they share electrons. Ionic bonding occurs between a metal and a non-metal, and they transfer electrons.
